House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., blasted the Republican tax package, calling it a monster and predicting the legislation will come back to haunt Republicans, according to the Washington Examiner.

"It's a Frankenstein," Pelosi said. "Anybody who's familiar with Frankenstein knows it was a creation, a monster that was created. Do you know the ending of the Mary Shelley's story? The monster comes back to destroy.".

As a result, Pelosi remained confident about Democratic chances of taking back the House in the 2018 midterm elections. And, she said, passage of the GOP's tax plan will play a key role in Democratic victories.

"This is really a big opening," she said. "The door is open. The president's (approval) numbers are in the 30s. I think, probably, his numbers and the support for the tax bill are probably similar."
